My grandson and I did the River Walk tubing ride in Reno on the Truckee. The trip was fun and exciting at times but, it was tame enough for younger kids. The staff was friendly and helpful and the price was reasonable.

I would like to thank Wild Sierra for a great experience for my 12 year son & myself. This is the second time going snowmobiling in the sierra mountain with Wild Sierra. Mr. James Bell was an excellent host. He helped explain what was involved in the package. And he was the one that came to pick us up on time.

Just to let you know the  pick up service was inclusive in the package. Once we are at the meeting point we suited up and went to our snowmobile=WOW! Very nice!

Our guides are super experienced. They knew the back country well. They also took time to make sure my son enjoyed this adventure. And YES! he is hooked. The trail was just beautiful as you can imagine. Again, thank you to the whole Wild Sierra team and we will see you very soon.

Jim was super helpful on a last minute bike errand while we were stopped in Reno. He literally dropped everything and met us at the shop for an emergency tuneup. A stand-up guy and a fantastic small business you definitely want to support.

My son and I were celebrating Christmas in Reno, and looking for something new to do. We hired Jim to take us on a snow shoeing expedition, and it was a blast! He was easy to schedule with, reasonably priced, and picked us up at our hotel right on time!  He took us to a fantastic spot north of Lake Tahoe, and gave us practical, easy to understand instructions on how to put on the shoes, walk up and down hills, etc. It was a ton of fun! Next summer we're coming back for some tubing!

I had an awesome time! The people working were complete sweethearts! The water level were ideal, however, between the natural rapids and kayak drops downtown, it was a blast! Definitely recommend!

This place is awesome! I am from out of state and they showed us a great time for a great price! I discovered this activity late in our trip, so I reserved our activity the night before we wanted to go; mind you that reservations are usually made 48 hours in advance. They were so nice they made sure to fit us in no matter what the next day and we were able to still go down. At the end of the trip we brought our gear back to the store and they had snacks, water, cold beer and tacos waiting for us! And all free! I made sure to give them a tip at the end of the trip because they really made us feel like family and we had great conversations over some cold beers and tacos at the end. This is a must do when your in reno!

Me and my family had sooo much fun on this trip. Our boat guide was Kevin and he was absolutely amazing! He was very knowledgable about the history of the area and was very friendly. We took the advanced path and we hit a few bumps but he got us through! He jumped out the boat to help us off get off some rocks we got stuck on! And we hit one big bump and my grandpa fell out of the boat and he was able to guide us right to where my grandpa floated and he got him back in the boat safely! I WOULD DEFINITELY DO THIS ADVENTURE AGAIN!!! Thanks Kevin!

“Just the guys getaway, awesome”. We booked Sierra Adventures and on 01/15/16 me and some childhood friends went snowmobiling in the Sierra mountains. The trip was unbelievable, the snow covered trees and scenery were beautiful. The guides were great, they knew the area like the back of their hand and they had a great deal of patience. If your ever in the Reno area I would definitely book a snowmobiling trip, you won't be disappointed. I also recommend bringing a GoPro because you want to remember this trip for a lifetime.

Jim,
Just a quick note to say thanks for everything. The group enjoyed both activities. Ryan the river guide and the girls at the ranch were great. (Please let Lee know her staff is great.) The girls back at your office were very nice and had a sandwich break, snacks and drinks waiting for us when we got off the river. (THE PBR WAS COLD AND WAS A NICE SURPRISE.)

"You've got a great staff." If back in Reno we will use Sierra Adventures. I'll post a review on yelp, as well.

Thanks again.

Thanks very much, Jim!
Your crew was terrific, the equipment was excellent, and my Team had a fantastic time rafting on the Truckee this weekend. Everyone reported this as one of the best Team Outings we have had. It was well attended and much enjoyed. It was a First Class experience from beginning to end.

Cheers!

Dear Jim,
Thank you for your help and guidance on our "Sierra Adventure." As you would've known even if we didn't tell you, none of us had skied before, and it was truly an adventure. We couldn't have done it without you. The scenery on the way to Diamond Peak was awesome - nothing like the sights we see in southeastern Ohio.

If you're ever in our area, look us up. We'll take you spelunking in the many caves of the Hocking Hills. And if we're ever again in Reno, we'll know who to call for our outdoor adventure!

Thanks again,
Cheryl, Marilyn, Stef, Jeri Ann

This is a delayed note to let you know that when I was there last summer I had a good experience renting a kayak. Lucas was the one I dealt with and he did a good job. Good luck for 2008.

I am now back in Nova Scotia and as promised a few photo's for you. Thanks for the great Sunday a.m. tour of your canyon. I so enjoyed it and wish you all the best in future runs...especially those ultra's...amazing!

"Things to do & see outdoors" by Mark Vanderhoff, Reno Gazette-Journal (RGJ)

Adventurous? The concierge can recommend a good restaurant. The bellhop can suggest a happening nightspot. When it comes to adventure, Reno native Jim Bell knows what the outdoor minded visitor wants. His company is featured in several Media Publications including the RGJ "Get Out series", Outside Magazine's top ten list, Korea's Tatler Magazine, The Reno Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, The Reno News and Review and on the News 2 Adventure Series. Recently, Bell moved his operation to a retail store location in downtown Reno. He offers the nearby casino hotel guests a wide range of rentals and tours for the Sierra Mountains, Reno and Lake Tahoe. Behind the store, kayakers frolic in the Truckee River Whitewater Park. Tourists can walk from their hotel room to find a one-stop portal into the area's outdoor opportunities. Sierra Adventures has a combination of services; Bell rents bikes and kayaks, can suggest a good local trail or hook up tourists with a guided trip, from rafting to ballooning, or combinations like mountain biking and horseback riding.
